Can you believe it’s December already? Thanksgiving is over and Hanukkah is under way; which also means that it’s officially shopping season! In fact, today is Cyber Monday, the busiest online shopping day of the year. So I rallied some of my favorite food bloggers together and we decided to give someone a little extra spending money this holiday season. A little? Heck…we decided to give away $600! After all, we truly appreciate and love all of our readers!

All you have to do is enter through the Rafflecopter link below and tell us what you would do with an extra $600 this holiday season. Once you comment, you will have over 50 other chances to enter. The giveaway runs from December 2-15, 2013 and one winner will be chosen and notified on December 16, 2013. Please read the complete Terms & Conditions as this giveaway is only valid for U.S residents only (Sorry, rules of the gift card company prohibit us from offering this outside of the U.S.).

We had to move cross country because my husband couldn't find a job on the West Coast and he had to go back to his old job on the East Coast. We had to leave being close to my kids and grandkids. I would use the money to fly to the West Coast to see my family.

2013 has been a rough year. Between dog surgeries, wrecked cars and getting robbed, we could really use a leg up. The money would be used to pay off some of our bills and the rest would go to our savings account for our Yellowstone trip next July!

The year has been so rough on our family, there are so many things I could do with this. I would probably use half of it to get an Xbox w/ Kinect that my kids have been begging for to put under the tree...and the rest? I'd use it to clothe the kids.

While I SHOULD use it to pay bills or help boost our savings, I know myself and I would use it to take my family to a fun holiday outing -- Yuletide or Wicked (in some other city) or a Colts game. Some good old-fashioned family togetherness.

What would I get? Hard to say. I have 9 children including the 3 spouses, and 4 grandchildren with another due next June. I would love to be able to help my kids out. A new baby coming, 3 of them in college. Maybe I could be selfish and do something just for my husband and I. That would be a switch!

We would use some of it to help out with our kids' Christmas and I think I'd pay it forward with the rest and share it with another special needs family (hopefully they can be split easily?) ... I couldn't do a giving campaign this year so it would be nice to be able to still help another family.

I would finish Christmas shopping in a flash instead of weighing all of the sales, and then donate more to the Christmas store we support through church. Right now my kids each pick one gift each to donate, would love to knock out their "most needed" list!!!

Some of it would go towards Christmas gifts to some well-deserving Russian boys I know. The rest would probably go towards child-care at Christmas since I don't get the time off when the girls are off school
